I am 61 and i still love when school supplies come out each year...the notebooks, pens, pencils 😂😂
I will never stop loving school supplies lol! I totally understand😊
Me too 66 years old.
Me too 🙂
Same here! One of my favorite places to go is Staples! 😃👍
Kindred Spirits!!!! And I know y'all know, but Walmart always puts these comp books on sale (sometimes as low as 25 cents!!) a few weeks after the school supplies come out! Oh yeah baby! I stock up.
I’m a planning nerd, list person and basic organizational junkie. It’s so refreshing to see someone talk about actual planning. Social media is rife with people doing art and buying stickers and washi tape. To be clear-this has nothing to do with planning and everything to do with procrastination and wasting money. Thanks for your reasonable advice on actual planning!🌻
Thanks so much for watching my friend!!😊
I understand your point but you don’t have to be rude about the people who do like artistry. It's not procrastination if it genuinely helps you. And it’s not a waste of money if you enjoy it.
Personally, I’m not a planner at all but I journal a lot. I love adding decoration to the borders of my journaling pages because it’s fun and I like it. It soothes me. Not a waste of time or money in my book.
We can appreciate the simplicity and what goes into this system without disparaging other systems.
@@elliesnotes100%!!!!! My thoughts exactly!
I agree with you 100% on it being refreshing to see someone talk about actual planning. I don't knock those who are into the stickers and artistry, it's just not for me. I do use some stickers in my planner but very minimal compared to what some do so this channel's videos really appeal to me.
😂😂
I have been a daily planner all my life. I am 81. Right down to meal planning. lol it has been my life.👏♥️☕️🐶🐾
That is awesome! Maybe you can share some of your planning tips with me on IG. I love learning about planning #plannernerd :)
I’m an unorganized mess and thought spending boatloads of money on pretty planners was going to make me organized. Well it didn’t. It overwhelmed me. Thank you for this wonderfully simple idea. 🤗
You’re welcome! We’ve all been there😊
Me too!!!
Looks great. One question. What if you need to go back a few days and add more items to date. You have no room because you have already added more days.
Fancy planners are fine if that's your style, but I can make a list on the back of a used envelope and stick it in my little purse. I wasted lots of cash on planners over the years.
@@brenda9513 How about...........divide your page down the middle and create your lists for each day in the left hand column. When done, you will see that you have a blank column on the right hand side. If anything new crops up, and you don't have space on the left hand side to write it, write it on the right hand side.
Love seeing people using a basic notebook. It doesn't have to be fancy. Love your handwriting!
Thanks so much!! 😊❤️
Yes yes yes. Basics. And handwriting 🎉🎉🎉
Love notebooks. Collect notebooks. Love to journal. Make lists. Take notes.
Jot ideas. Copy quotes. Write vocabulary words and definitions. Budget money, bills, due dates. I love writing. I have a trunk of old spirals from years past. My life. I helps me organize my thoughts. It helps me learn.
I can relate. My goal is for someone to uncover them in the future and be inspired....i have accepted the more likely outcome which will be someone entertained by my delusion. 🤭🤷🏿♂️
😂😂😂
Great idea! I LOVE that!!😍
I can relate totally. It helps with my ADHD. Clearing the mind
Same ❤
LISTERS GONNA LIST!!!
Yes!!!😂😂
😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
I started carrying my comp book with me and writing notes like what was said in my doctor's appt or on whatever business calls I made. It's like an outcome log for my original to-do list. It both clears up storage space in the brain because I'm "storing" the info in my notebook, and also increases future accurcy because I have it to refer to, because the act of writing things down helps you remember them better, and because I'm writing the notes right after it happened instead of trying to recall it hours later to journal at night.
Love this idea. Thanks for sharing 😊😍
You cracked the code… I will no longer buy all these expensive planners cause I only have 50 of them … and basically all you want to see is everything at a glance 💯💯
😊😊😁So true!
I think I must have 50 of them too. I guess that’s the process of planner junkies have to go through until we finally learn.
That part. I got a cute 2 yr planner from Aldi. Less then 10 buck maybe even 8. It's bulky and I didn't use it as often as I thought I would. This may be go to for the next school year.
I make a lot of lists, and unfortunately, my brain thinks I have accomplished all the things that are on the list yeah🙄
Thanks for sharing your method, I really like it
As the months pass, your journal 📓 becomes a bit of a memoir 😊
It does! I love that 😊
I see your point. Some people prefer the aesthetic of a fancy planner with stylish graph lines. However, I personally would rather use my own creation and opt for a 50 or 99-cent book.
I like the versatility of a good notebook. I also like the fancy stuff too- my problem is that I don’t want to spend a lot of money for it lol! Thanks for watching my friend!😊
❤
Planner aside, I love your lovely, calm voice.
Thank you so much. You’re sweet😊🥰
I use the same notebook. I keep my bills written down. I keep track of my money. I write down goals and shopping lists. It works!
Excellent! I love that idea 😊
Me too. I bought 10 of these notebooks for $0.50 at school time at Target
Such a great deal! Back to school time is the best for finding deals on stationary😊
I appreciate this so much!!! I’m a huge planner nerd but there’s just something about a plain $0.50 notebook being loved right
Thank you for watching my friend!!😊
You are 100% absolutely right.... you do NOT need anything fancy to do what it needs to be done! You're AWESOME!
Aww … right back at ya my friend!😊❤️
I know you said it’s chicken scratches lol but your handwriting is still so pretty
😊🥰
Seriously
I am addicted to notebooks and all things stationery, art supplies, journals, etc. Finding myself becoming more of a list maker this year. I'm new to your channel and love it !
Welcome to the fam my friend! So happy you’re here😊❤️
😂😂😂😂😂 I’m a shameless lister ❤
This is beautifully done
Thanks Sis!!😊❤️
I think one of the reason of why’s people hate planners because they’re so complicated, different with all fluffs as you said, stickers etc. Whenever I bought them I never used them as a planner, now I am using them as a journal 😅 I don’t want to waste them, I think this is the best way of planning, not digital, not iPads none of that, only simple cheap notebooks work the best. Thank you for this reminder ❤
Haha! I know what you mean. I like the variety of different planners, but I get overwhelmed and anxious by the variety out there. Keeping it simple has worked well for me this year so far. At the end of the day it’s all about choice, which is what makes planning so much fun. You can do whatever you like that feels comfortable and makes sense to you😊
I DO love notebooks! I am a journaler and need to write everything down in my life.
I hear you my friend!😊
I am NOT a 'planning nerd' (wish I was!) but when I have a lot to do I find it helpful to make a list of tasks, and it is SO darn satisfying to check off each one when completed. It seems that when I write things down ahead of time, I get more done, in less time than I thought (feared?) it would take.
Love that!😊
I love to make lists and I love cute journals & notebooks. My favorite place for inexpensive journals is TJ Maxx😊
We don’t have TJ Max here in Canada, but we have a store called Winners that’s similar and I love it too!
@@planningcalmWinners is indeed similar -- it's owned by TJ Max. 🙂 Thanks for presenting such a simple planning method.
Your video here is just what I needed in order to be reminded that there are so many ways for all of us to return to basics without spending inordinate amounts of money when we don't need to. Your video has made me think about other things that we've been made to believe that we 'need'. You've demonstrated that something basic is quite satisfactory and can do the same or very similar job....thanks so much!
Thanks for your comment. I have to remind myself of this a lot these days. The economy is rough, money is tight and my needs have to take priority over anything I may want. Sometimes the basics is what we need to stay calm. Thanks for watching my friend!😊
Pretty soon I am going to have to get a storage unit to keep my unused notebooks in. I absolutely love any notebooks…spiral, pretty covers etc., etc., etc.
I hear ya! 😍🥰😊
New subscriber here! I am a serial planner! Love this simple yet effective way to do it! Not overwhelming at all!
Plus I am addicted to office supplies, especially hardcover notebooks are my jam! If there was a candle that smelled like office supplies I would buy it!
Awesome! Thank you! Haha! Me too! I just looooooove office supplies and stationary 😊
Haha same!
😂😂😂 the candle comment got me haha!
I thought it was just me with my secret obsession with office supplies. We will one day meet in therapy.
I have to use a binder clip so I don’t have to flip thru whole notebook to find current week (esp. when I get further in)
I’m in Atlantic Canada too, so I feel your snowstorm pain
Yay! A fellow Maritimer!! Love it. Your clip is a great idea. Why didn’t I think of that?😊🤔
Also a binder clip person! For the current page and for a printed out month at a glance page,loose papers or things that I have to do associated with that week or coming weeks.
I love this. Funny enough, I bought a pink composition notebook for much the same reason last week while on a business trip. Cost me 99 cents at the 99 cent only store. You got a steal!
Lol! I’m always on the hunt for a bargain😊Thanks for watching 🥰
I also am an addict and a nerd when it comes to planning, stationary journaling, and everything in between I really like your station and I plan on watching you as often as I can. Thanks for your input.
Yay, thank you! Welcome to the fam my friend and thank you for the support😁❤️
Hi, if you are interested in planning maybe you can look for our premium planners. It is premium but only 1$
❤ listers gotta list ! So true. I am lost without my lists. Those cheap notebooks are the best. Love your channel 😊
Thanks so much! Lists are a great way to stay calm- at least for me lol!😊
Yeah, exactly what I thought. Lists and cheap notebooks ❤
I love anything and everything PRACTICAL!❤ Saves money and there's a wisdom to it.
😊
Love anything with paper to write. 😂😂 New subscriber.
Welcome to the fam my friend! So happy you’re here😊🎉
I love this! This I can do. I love the idea of planners, but the fancy stuff is time consuming (but pretty), so I don't do it. I'm a to do list person. This fits beautifully. Thank you for sharing!❤
You are so welcome! Thanks for being here my friend!❤️
Girl You better come here with this great idea 💡!! I love this!! Very simple, easy to correct/ erase, affordable, effective!! This just ✅ checks all of the Planner Boxes. Again I Love This!! I love this because I am Composition Notebook 📓 Fan!!
You are so welcome! I love a good (and cheap) composite notebook as well😆📓
Hi, Cat! Basically, this is how I am planning this year. The only difference is I'm using an A5 dot grid spiral. I use 2 pages for each weekly or monthly layout. I'm making it a point to change up the layout frequently so that I can figure out exactly what I need and want. Thanks for sharing this, because I believe people can get caught up in all the hype of planners, stickers and etc. It can all be overwhelming and expensive. I appreciate your videos. Have a lovely week, Cat.
Thanks so much sweet friend 😊
#Plannernerd here. I tried so many different types of planning. Tried the stickers and all that. It was too much for me. I am now doing digital planning on my tablet using the forms that come with the Noteshelf app. Simple, free and customizable. I love it and I keep up with it. Now I just have to get my budget planning on point. Lol Great video showcasing the simple ways to get ourselves together.
Thanks so much! I love digital planning for my job as a teacher. Makes life so simple. Thanks for watching!😊
As many planners as I look to purchase I always go back to just using a notebook to write or dumping things from my head. My brain works better when I don’t have time slots to fill in
I get it! Sometime those slots cause me anxiety lol! 😂😂😊
Hi!😊 I am 100% a planner nerd, notebook lover and list maker!🥰 when I first started planning as an adult I wasn’t sure what kind of system would be best for me so I started in a plain notebook and then in the middle of my planning journey I was thinking of switching from rings to hobonichi but I wasn’t sure so I took a year and went back to a plain notebook to help me figure it out! I love affordable little notebooks, I think they’re amazing with almost endless potential! I love this video so much! I hope your husband had a wonderful birthday! Thank you so much and I’m excited for your next video!!❤
I’m all the things as well and I’m not ashamed of it lol! I love notebooks for the same reason- they are so versatile, you can do almost anything with them. Thanks for being here my friend!😊

Planner nerd and list maker here from the other coast of Canada! Thank you for your video. Love your handwriting! 😊
Yay! I use to live on that side as well and I miss the mountains. Thank you for being here😊
I always like the smaller purse size notebooks.
They’re great for on the go😊
I love this and will try it out!
I currently use a "to-do" list notebook. Anything I haven't completed gets an arrow to indicate it needs to be moved to the next day.
I loved the idea of a bullet journal but I spent more time making layouts than actually writing in it...and I just ended up avoiding it altogether.
But I will try this method once I'm done with my current notebook.
Thank you for the video!
I love that! Def something that can be incorporated in a notebook system. Thanks for sharing😊
Hi, I’m a planner nerd too. I happened upon your channel. I’m a retired teacher and love planning, lists, jotting, but in a simple and calm. I’m subscribed . Nothing just happens. I was meant to come across your channel. Even the responses in the comments are calming !! Love this and Thanks !❤
Welcome to the fam my friend! The community here is wonderful and I’m happy you’re a part of it❤️😊
I'm such a planner nerd and list maker to a fault and have always been. I have a stack of these composition books in my desk cabinet to use for cash receipts, jotting down to-do list, etc. So glad I checked out your channel. Such a great method for planning that is simple and efficient; great for anyone. Thanks so much.
That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing sweet friend!😊
I love notebooks! Have way too many. I make lists ad nauseam. We are twins!!! Just found you on here and love this. I have wasted so much $$ on planners. Then they are too complicated or have extra stuff I don't use. This is awesome. Subscribing and looking forward to more tips and ideas.
Welcome to the fam my friend! 🙋🏾♀️Stay tuned as I have more notebook/planner videos coming to the channel😊
Great idea! I print out a monthly calendar and post it on the refrigerator. My husband and I fill in the appointments that we have so we each know what is scheduled. That seems to work for us. Appointments for the following months are noted at the bottom of the calendar so they can be carried forward to the next month. I keep a small notebook of items that I jot down for myself of things that I'm working on. I keeps me on-track with what I need to get done.
I love that idea! 😊
Great overview, Cat! I started off as a bullet journal planner babe in a a composition notebook. Literally how I planned my wedding back in 2016. I think it is always great to show that planner can take many different forms...as long as it works for you.
I hear ya! Finding what works for you is key😊
😍 love the idea!
Thank you! 😊
Thanks!! Great idea. I’ll do mine!!! I never tough doing it!!! Thanks again!!
Yes I too am a planner nerd love to plan. I just went back to simple planning just pen and paper . I use a planner with a calendar , but just writing down what I need to do and this to do. And it has been great and it seems that I stay consistent doing just the basics things . Love this
Sometimes we have to embrace the basics to get to the calm😌 Thanks for watching my friend!
Love your planner. So simple and effective.
Thanks so much!😊
I’m definitely a planner nerd and a bit of a lister 😊
You’re in good company! 😊❤️
Each time I'm at a second-hand store, if there are notebooks, I always buy them.
I’m glad I’m not along. They’re so much cheaper there than at the retail stores. At least here I’m Canada😊
Sounds & looks pretty good. I've got stickers, washi tape, and stamps, color pens, etc. Because I have always loved stickers and colors. I actually have a mix of fun planning and quick list notebook planning too! The more simple format is usually for work. Your video was cool.😊
Love it- thanks!❤ I love notebooks and lists, too 😊
Yay!😊
I enjoy planning! Thank you for the great advice!
You are so welcome!😊

Loved this, Cat. For me, it's back to basics when planner chaos rears its ugly (and usually overpriced) head. You have distilled what is needed to actually plan in a clean and organized way. Great post. TFS!
Thanks sweet friend! Sometimes less is more (and cheaper) lol!😊🥰
Oh my! This makes so much sense!
😊🥰
This is a great example of nice and simple planning! Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome!😊
